In all the years of being a member of this forum I have yet to get to a meet.

For the record, before being labelled a recluse, I must advise that as an historian with an involvement in the events known as "The Great War" I must apologise for having to be elsewhere on the centenary of armistice day

We will miss you. One day, one day! We will keep trying to entice you.

All booked. Need to start saving for shop visit, although surely there can’t be anything I haven’t already got!

Will be great to see you both again.
We’re a bit like you on the ‘what to buy’ front but want to keep up to date. Still don’t have a topper though and we might just need one in early November! Currently only need some plastic clip thingys for the upper bed as we seem to have broken a few since we left the UK.
In any event the social meet including the brewery is a must and not to be missed!

 

[Calimagg]

Definitely second the brewery! See you in Denmark

Where are you? You posted your question in the Bolsover thread.

We are booked but may not have our new van due to delays. Anyone fancy putting us up for the night, wont make a noise & I cook a mean breakfast.

Hi Mr T, You will be made most welcome.
As you can imagine I am in the process of preparing for our meet at Tall Trees Camp Site and wondered if you could let me have the real names of all your crew. Please send to this email address T600VWC@+++++.com . I intend to produce ID cards for each Cali so they can be displayed in your windscreen so other members know who you are - a small ice breaker. (You can choose not to display if you prefer but want to give folks the option)
For your information we have 16 Cali's booked so far with a max of 25/26. This is a good number I think. Not too big and not too small.
More info to follow.
Kind Regards
Rik & Terri
